Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66412&edit=1 ID: 66412 Updated by: remi@php.net Reported by: php at 0x7f dot us Summary: readline_clear_history() with libedit causes segfault after #65714 -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Readline related Operating System: OS X 10.9.1 PHP Version: 5.5.7 Assigned To: remi Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Automatic comment on behalf of remi Revision: http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=31d67bd35362c1ab570caccedfec3e24257b55c5 Log: Fixed Bug #66412 readline_clear_history() with libedit causes segfault after #65714 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-20 07:32:17] remi@php.net The patch for bug #65714 drop the call to using_history in module init. Checking all libedit functions, this check is done in each functions (add_history, rad_history, write_history, ...) but is missing in clear_history. Calling it before clear_history solves the segfault (and avoid having to revert the fix, which is still useful). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-04 19:27:32] php at 0x7f dot us Description: ------------ Since PHP 5.5.7, calling readline_clear_history() segfaults. PHP 5.5.7 (installed via Homebrew) OS X 10.9 And whatever libedit version ships with OS X 10.9 (Mavericks). From the readline.h file: /* $NetBSD: readline.h,v 1.33 2012/05/15 17:30:04 christos Exp $ */ Note that this is over 11 years newer than the header comment in the SourceForge project linked from the readline ext readme (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libedit/) /* $NetBSD: readline.h,v 1.1 2001/01/05 21:15:50 jdolecek Exp $ */ This version of libedit seems to actually be maintained, I imagine it is more like what is available on OS X: http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline Reverting b8d88bf (a fix for #65714) fixes the segfault.
